Our pantomimes have been tremendous successes, with Cinderella winning the Rose Bowl best show award in 2010 and Babes in the Wood, which was written by our own Lizzie Lindsell, receiving a nomination for the same award last year.
Lizzie has once again conjured up a show full of magic and love, fun and romance. Oh, and unfeasibly long hair! It’s packed with everything a pantomime should be – a wide range of music, dancing, jokes and silliness, not to mention a few surprises on the way.
The fairy tale Little Red Riding Hood has origins as far back as the 17th century and was first published by the brothers Grimm in 1812. Thornbury Musical Theatre Group is bringing this traditional family pantomime to you, bang up-to-date and with a few new twists and turns along the route to Grandmother’s house.
Our version is traditional, with a few modern twists thrown in. You'll see the Babes and their rather large and quirky Nanny. Robin Hood has his Merry Men, Little John, Friar Tuck, Will Scarlett and other men in tights with less familiar names! The Sheriff of Nottingham is the evil Uncle who not only takes things out on the children, but tries to force Robin Hood's love, and cousin to King Richard the Lionheart, the beautiful Maid Marion, to marry him. There's lots of action and slapstick with witches, spirits and fairies thrown in.
